New bill would stop Obama's golf trips until White House tours return

3/11/2013

As far as Congressional issues go, you'd think "stop Obama from golfing" wouldn't be super-high on the list of things to do. But you'd be wrong. Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) recently introduced legislation that essentially would stop the president from going golfing unless the White House reinstates the public tours it canceled as a result of the sequester. "None of the funds made available by a division of this Act may be used to transport the president to or from a golf course until public tours of the White House resume," Gohmert's amendment reads. No mention of green fees or caddie tips was made. [Source]
